Shikhar Dhawan and Sophie Shine couldn't have picked a better place for their romantic getaway. The Maldives is just made for lovebirds-with those dreamy water villas, private beaches and stunning ocean views. It's all about slow mornings, sun-kissed afternoons, and cosy sunsets. For a couple like Shikhar and Sophie, who have just gone public with their relationship, it is the ideal mix of chill vibes and luxury.
Earlier, Dhawan shared a funny reel with Sophie Shine on Instagram. In the video, the couple is seen enacting a scene from the 1997 Hindi movie Judaai. They recreated actress Upasana Singh's iconic Abba Dabba Jabba scene from the movie.
The side note read, " Pata nahi kaunsi hindi seekh ke aa gayi ye [I don't know which Hindi she learnt]."

Rana Naidu 2 actor Rana Daggubati on online negativity against cinema: Art has to disturb those who are comfortable
Actor Rana Daggubati, who recently returned with season 2 of the web show Rana Naidu, continues to balance his presence between the big screen and the OTT space. No stranger to long-form storytelling - having made his streaming debut in 2023 - Rana says he has developed a measured understanding of cynicism often disguised as opinion - and how to rise above it. 'Art has to disturb the guys who are comfortable and create some kind of satisfaction to those who are disturbed and I believe in that,' says Rana, as he goes on to talk about online trolling. Rana Daggubati takes on trolls and shares with negativity. Sharing how he remains unfazed by online negativity, the 40-year-old says, 'Commenting is everybody's job and social media is a real thing. Everyone feels the need to say something and that necessarily doesn't have to be right or wrong - it's just someone's opinion.' Also Read| Exclusive| Rana Naidu 2 actor Rana Daggubati: Globally, theatres are on a decline Rana, who has worked across the Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi film industries, is well-versed in the different cultural expectations and the varied emotional responses of audiences when a film falls short of those expectations. 'When you take the size of a country like ours, the cultural understanding of people is very different,' Rana says. Recalling his experiences promoting films across India, he adds, 'We travel so many kilometers with a sense of what they (audience) understand, and it can be very different from how we choose to live our own lives.' He acknowledges that in a country as vast and diverse as India, different opinions are inevitable and one should take it in their stride. 'It just gives us a sense of understanding of those people because our jobs will not change. I have been doing this for 15 years and I will continue to do it,' he says before signing off, 'As creators, it's our job to say, 'Here's a story, let's see how many people it reaches.' That's what we need to focus on.'
